The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 756 - 311: Hidden Sickle Insect Cave_2

Ye Hanjun was unable to voice these words, he just sighed, realizing his current luck was indeed terrible.

The Gesila was indeed the king-level being of this layer, possessing the status and strength of a ruler.

The gap in rank between GuaGua and it was too large; even if forced to transform, the strong sense of inconsistency would make it apparent to other beings that it was fake, disguised, and lacked any combat ability.

"Oh, right."

"Near our nest, there is a fixed spatial rift that opens every few months."

"If you can’t get by in this layer, you might consider visiting the one below... huff... huff..."

The fourth and second sleeping giant otters fell asleep in succession.

At that moment, only the eldest brother was fighting off the overwhelming sleepiness, desperately staring at the man and the frog.

"Hurry up, get out of here quicker!"

"I can throw you out; my strength is great, and in an instant across the poison fog, you should probably not end up dead!"

"Wait!"

Ye Hanjun probed the bamboo hairpin with his soul power and, upon roughly confirming the items inside, followed up persistently with:

"May I ask if there are any unique beings nearby skilled in illusionary techniques?"

"I want to hunt such creatures and use their life materials to nourish my Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits."

"Illusionary techniques???"

The eldest of the sleeping giant otter clan racked his brain for a moment, suddenly slapped his head, and shouted loudly:

"I’ll throw you near the Hidden Sickle Insect cave!"

"We’ve eaten their leader before, though crispy and tasty, but after eating, it left us delirious, and it took over a hundred days of diarrhoea before we returned to normal!"

With those words, the sleeping giant otter’s large hand grabbed Ye Hanjun.

It aimed at a corner of the sky, braced its legs, and swung its arms around, mustering an extraordinary force:

"Go, Pokeball!"

...

"Swoosh―"

A perfect parabola, his flesh seemed about to tear apart.

"Yikes yikes yikes!!!"

A normally flying wild goose, panicked, nearly grazed his scalp as it passed.

Ye Hanjun cursed his luck internally; had it collided, given his current physical condition, he might have ended up spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood.

Finally, after more than five minutes of free fall, Ye Hanjun summoned Huazhu, frantically dodging for safety.

A man and a Witch paused awkwardly in mid-air, looking down, the ground featured a small mountain of reddish-black ore.

Numerous ant-like creatures were busily moving irregular stones, a scene that was unexpectedly eye-catching.

"Big tadpole, are these the Hidden Sickle Insects? They don’t seem so special."

GuaGua’s knowledge was not as vast as Ye Hanjun’s.

Faced with something incomprehensible, one could only humbly ask for guidance.

"No, these are ’Brown Stone Ants’, just a very common insect species, not even reaching the Heaven and Earth Stage."

Ye Hanjun furrowed his brow, seriously doubting whether the sleeping giant otter had thrown them in the wrong direction.

Or perhaps, an unforeseeable mishap had occurred invisibly again, and the destination that should have been reached normally was once more off course?

"Whoosh~~~"

Huazhu manipulated the whirlwind to help Ye Hanjun descend slowly.

During the descent, a group of normally active Brown Stone Ants emitted a faint abnormal sound.

Their attention was drawn there, another unique scene presented itself within view.

"Hiss... hiss hiss!"

Five Annihilation Rank Brown Stone Ants, only a meter long.

Yet, they were carrying stones exceeding five meters, weights dozens of times their own body weight.

As they climbed normally, a slight ripple vibrated through the air, and a scythe appeared momentarily, severing the head of the last Brown Stone Ant.

The death of a companion alerted the other ants.

They stayed in their positions, hesitant to drop the stones they were holding, their antennae frantically waving as if sending out distress signals.

"Hiss!"

The stone beneath crumbled, and a beetle-like thick-armored large ant brandished a pair of pincers, shrieking loudly.

"Swipe!"

The ripples waved once more, as three scythes swooped down simultaneously.

The so-called ’Giant Brown Ants,’ a Brown Stone Ant Ascending Evolution form, were chopped into four pieces without even a chance to scream.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

The remaining four Brown Stone Ants dared not linger, dropping the stones they carried and scattering in all directions.

The Brown Stone Ants nearby sensed the danger and also fled, creating a chaotic scene.

"Huff! Huff!"

With the invisibility dispelled, three mantis-like white flying insects materialized in mid-air.

They ignored the other prey and focused on spitting saliva on the chunks of the Giant Brown Ants.

A miraculous scene unfolded, as with the saliva applied, the body of the Giant Brown Ants also became invisible.

"Master, the hunt is complete, they seem to be retreating."

"Can you lock on to their location?"

Ye Hanjun showed a hint of intrigue as he spoke to Huazhu.

"I cannot see with my eyes, but being within this domain, I can capture the flow of the wind."

Huazhu closed her eyes, sensitively sensed and responded:

"They are moving away towards the left, their speed has slowed because they are dragging food."

"Let’s follow and see," Ye Hanjun was very interested.

"Whoosh~~~"

As the wind sounded, the chase unfolded within the low mountains.

Unexpectedly, despite Huazhu trying to minimize noise, the Hidden Sickle Insects still detected the pursuers.

"Master, they have stopped moving."

"No... they are coming towards us, with intense killing intent."
